Not-Quite-Friday Field Trip: Adventure Down Under!

G'Day mates! Greetings from Australia! I'm on vacation at the moment, but I was lucky enough to find a substitute guide for our Fill-in-the-day-the-WiFi-decides-to-cooperate-and-finish-uploading-my-photos Field Trip.

She's far more seasoned at this sort of thing than I am. Ah! Here she is now.

And it looks like she even brought her own photographer!

Are you ready? Just follow the girl in the pink backpack!

Hi, campers! This is where we'll be staying on our trip to the Gold Coast.

Can you give me a second to figure out our first stop?

Hey! It looks like the perfect day for the beach.

Let's go!

And what would a trip to the Gold Coast be without a visit to one of its theme parks?

Dream World, here we come!

Oooh! This ride is just my thing! :)

Um...okay. Maybe not.

I didn't really want to go on it anyway.

Teacups are far more exciting.

They're almost as much fun as wrestling crocodiles.

And riding pink ponies.

But there's nothing better than feeding kangaroos.

Well, except maybe for...

...white tigers!

Let's go for a walk and see what else we can find.

Hello? Anybody home?

"Welcome to my parlor!" said the spider to the...

...EEEW-guana.

Koalas are so much cuter than lizards. This one looks tired.

And so am I.

Shhh. Looks like out little tour guide needs a nap. Hopefully, she'll be up and about in time for Part 2 of our Field Trip.

Hope you had a wonderful Easter Samantha, your trip looks absolutely wonderful, especially the ocean! Lots and lots of fun for everyone, do enjoy time with your little ones. Thanks for inviting us along for a ringside seat! Elizabeth.
